About this work

This drawing shows a group of 12 faces arranged in two rows, all looking upward. They’re set against a dark, busy background with red and blue shapes that look like stained glass. Below them is a long table covered in a white cloth, with dark objects on it—maybe food or skulls. The faces are simple but expressive, with some showing beards and others smooth skin. The colors are bold and flat, like a folk-style illustration. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists create depth with lines.
